Blackberry Ice Cream

I love using the ice cream maker.  It is a great way to use up fruit that you have but no time to eat it.  I bought blackberries at a local wholesale club and they were not getting eaten.  I put them in the freezer to prevent them from going bad.  Some were used in smoothies but the rest went into this recipe.  As usual, I used organic ingredients to make this recipe.  This recipe is used in the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker.

Ingredients:
3 cups frozen blackberries
3/4 cup whole or 2% milk
2/3 cup sugar
pinch salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups heavy cream


Here's how:

Place the bowl of your ice cream maker in the bowl the night before.  I keep mine in at all times!

Place all of the ingredients except the cream into the food processor.

Process until smooth.

Add the cream and pulse until it is incorporated.  Do not let it go too long - if you do it will start to whip the cream.

Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker and let it churn for 10-15 minutes.

Remove the ice cream from the machine and place it in a bowl and freeze for at least 2 hours.

Serve.
